4.2 Measuring pressure with external modules
The calibrator has a digital interface for external pressure modules.
These modules are available for various ranges, including gauge,
vacuum, differential and absolute pressure. The modules work
seamlessly in conjunction with the calibrator. Simply plug them into
the interface and select [EXT] (external sensor). Since the interface
between the calibrator and the module is digital, the accuracy and
display resolution is dependent on the module.

4.3 Measuring and sourcing current (4 ... 20 mA)
1. To measure current, use the input terminals on the front of the
calibrator. Select the mA function on the lower display. Current is
measured in mA and percentage of the measuring range. The
measuring range on the calibrator is set to 0 % at 4 mA and 100 %
at 20 mA.
Example
If the current measured is displayed as 75 %, then the value is 16
mA.
Note: The display will indicate "OL" when the measured
current exceeds the nominal range of current measurement
(24 mA).
2. The same connections are used for the current source. Select
mA-Source or mA Sim-2W from the configuration display.
